Speaker 1 (00:00):
Period of time, like I think nobody's seen before, and
we have tremendous stuff, as you know in Israel, and
now we're in a country where a friend of mine
is a very powerful leader, and my friend is right
here the president also the general, you know, sometimes I
(00:21):
call him usually I call him the general because he's
both and he's good at both. And they've done a
fantastic job. And they have very little crime, you know,
because they don't play games. That's why they don't play
games like we do in the United States, with governors
that have no idea what they're doing, but they don't
have crime. I ask about crime and they almost don't
(00:42):
even know what I'm talking about. So it's a great
tribute to this man. He's done a fantastic job in
bringing this country together, and the United States is with
him all the way. And they had a very important
role with Hamas. In fact that the General was uh
right here was very instrumental because Hamas respects this country
(01:04):
and they respect the leadership of Egypt. So had you've
played a very important role.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
I appreciate it very much.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
It's a tremendous day for the Middle East, and you
can see that this is probably the greatest assemblage of
countries in terms of wealth and power, maybe ever assembled,
and it's just an honored be a part of it.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
We're going to be.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Signing a document that's going to spell out of lot
of rules and regulations and lots of other things, and
it's very comprehensive. But we've already signed documents in the
Middle East and having to do with Israel and Hamas and.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Just about everything else. And it's it's.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Really working out incredibly well. The hostages, as you know,
were let go on time, on schedule, the very sad
situation of bodies, which was always a sad situation, and
they being sought out and they're working with many different
people finding some were brought in and some were not,
(02:07):
and they're working out to find out where those bodies are.
It's hard to believe that you even have to say
something like that. It's so sad. It's so sad. But
what's not said is that we have finally after I
guess they say three thousand years, I've heard from three
thousand years to five hundred years, but.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Whatever it is, it's a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
But this was the one. This was the granddaddy of
them all, and frankly, I thought this was probably going
to be the toughest, and maybe in many ways it was.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But we had a lot of good talent.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Steve Whitcoff, Jared and Marco and Pete and General Cain
was so great. John Ratcliffe was incredible. We had an
amazing array of talent today, for the first time anyone
can remember, we have a once in a lifetime chance
to put the old feuds and bitter hatreds behind us.
(02:57):
And that's why so many people in this room.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
They didn't get along. Some did, some didn't, but they're
getting along now. This has brought the people together.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
This is the first time the Middle East crisis has
brought people together as opposed to driving them apart, and
to declare that our future will not be ruled by
the fights of the generation's past, which is foolish. So together,
let us continue in the spirit of cooperation, a good
will that has finally brought us to this incredible, historic breakthrough.
(03:29):
If we do together, we will reach the Middle East's
incredible destiny, a safe and prosperous and beautiful crossroads of
culture and commerce, faith in humanity, and geographic center. This
will be the geographic center of the world. We've all
agreed that supporting Gasm must be done to lift up
(03:50):
the people themselves, but we don't want to fund anything
having to do with the bloodshed, hatred or terror.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
As has happened in the past.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
And for the same reason, we're also agreed that Gaza's
reconstruction requires that it be demilitarized and that a new, honest,
civilian police force must be allowed to create a safe
condition for the people in Gaza. So you have Armenia,
and you have Bahrain, you have Canada. It's so great
(04:20):
to have effect. The President called and he wanted to
know if it's worthwhile. He knew exactly what it was.
He knew the importance. Where's Canada, by the way, where
are you where? He knew the importance of this. He said,
I want to be there. So many people have done
that they called. I mean, they heard about it, and
(04:42):
these are not people that can do that very easily.
They have pretty big schedules to put it, the most
powerful people. And I appreciate you being here very much. President, Fantastic, fantastic,
He gone mass about.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
I'm glad you have a gread to meet. Resident.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I got a good question started. This is the primal
scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because
we're going to medieval on these people. There's not got
(05:21):
a free shot. And all these networks lying about the people,
the people have had a belly full of it. I
know you don't like hearing that. I know you tried
to do everything in the world to stop that, but
you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
And where do people like that go to share the
big line? Mega media?
Speaker 5 (05:37):
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of
these people had a conscience.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
If that answer is to save my country, this country
will be saved.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Here's your host, Stephen K.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Math.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
It's Monday, thirteenth October in the air for lored twenty
twenty five. It is both Columbus Day and it is
also the twenty fiftieth anniversary commemoration of the birth of
the United States Navy. Patrick K. O'Donnell is going to
join us. I want to make sure that even given
everything we did with Navy two fifty, that we don't
miss the actual date itself and Patrick, the best combat
(06:23):
historian of this generation, is going to join us here
this afternoon. So the President took was in Israel for
eight hours and then he went to Egypt and I
think he ran over the clock there, so he's now airborne.
I believe we'll be back at the White House around
midnight to focus on two pressing priorities. Zelensky, our favorite
(06:50):
guy here at the White House, right and back in
that right and back in net and Yahoo, is going
to come to the White House on Friday, and they're
going to have a quite important meeting where they're going
to talk about really America's commitment to this war and
the Bloodlands and particularly maybe potentially Tomahawk missiles or other
(07:11):
offensive missiles. Anyway, the whole discussion and strategic discussion about
the kinetic part of the Third World War, which we're
deep into, will be discussed then between now and then
when the President gets back. A pressing concern is the
actual breakout of blatant economic warfare by the Chinese Companies
(07:33):
Party against the United States of America. This comes with
a letter the Chinese Companies Party she sending notifications to
countries about component parts and about trade restrictions and controls.
A big part of this gets down to rare earth,
particularly heavy rare earths that are used in our industrial process.
(07:54):
And people have argued that, particularly with magnets and these
other things, that President Trump thought they worked at a
rap pro Schman or an accommodation back in June with
Scott Bessant and Peter Navarro and our trade representative that
we had worked at a rep Rochemont. The Chinese Company
Party does not look at it like that. They look
(08:15):
at this as a leverageable moment. And this is quite serious.
You've got guys on CNBC today and in the Financial
Time saying, hey, we should have stockpiled these things. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
And we talked about this on Breitbart Radio in twenty
fifteen when in the East China Sea was shut down
by the Chinese Companies Party, not the South China. See
(08:37):
the East China Sea was shut down and they shut
down rare earth. They threaten rare earth shut off to
Japan for its industrial process because of an issue with
fishing boats that were really pla spy boats vessels. It
got pretty gnarly on air rights and navigation rights into
the East China Sea and the first time the CCP
(08:59):
used earths, And if I remember correctly, I think we
had a guy named Eric Prince and others on the show.
We were doing the Daily Show at that time, had
him on the Daily Show. We said, this is a
very big deal because the Japanese could actually vapor loock
on manufacturing. That's what the president faces when he gets back.
The reality of the two major conflicts on the Eurasian
(09:22):
land mass won, an advanced military conflict, bloodier than the
first couple of years of World War Two, that would
be in Ukraine with no sign of abatement. And President Trump,
the empathetic President Trump, which Kurt Mills I think today
on the Overnight Show did such a great job in
President Trump listening taken an hour, as tired as he
(09:44):
must have been, to spend an hour with the hostage families,
hearing their heart rendering stories of what they went through
as hostages over the last year. President Trump clearly very
moved by the slaughter. And that's what it is. The
slaughter in Ukraine, with I think now getting close to
two million dead and wounded on the Ukrainian side, a
(10:06):
million to a million and a half wounded on the
Russian side, these numbers are just horrific. Something else that
President Trump is going to see that I think is
going to be a quite big issue. And you know,
Kurt and Mills is a quite controversial figure, but nobody
I've known Kurt now for ten fifteen years and one
of the smartest guys around. He said, hey, because Dave
(10:27):
Brett made this brilliant point about transparency. And over the
next couple of days, you're going to see transparency both
on the hostages side of what they really went through,
but also as people start getting into Gaza, and the
footage we've seen coming out of Gaza is pretty horrific.
Kurt Mills referred to it as the world's biggest crime scene.
And what's going to happen because a lot of the
(10:48):
media are some of the media haven't been into certain
areas of town. There's going to be I think, a
as Kurt said, a cyclone of media and we're going
to have to see how it falls out. So on
that front, there's a lot more to come. President Trump
has to deal with really two wars won in economic
with the Chinese Counties Party, which they're looking for a
(11:10):
diverted America because it's one of their basics of their
philosophy of military endeavor is an enemy or an opponent
that is totally focused on something else, they have a
history of striking at that moment. I know the people
(11:30):
around President Trump are quite aware of this. Of course,
Friday was a Lensky and Tomahawk missile. So once again
a day that starts off with a historic day in
the historic part of this, to be blunt is what
happened in Egypt, and people should take this. You know,
President Trump has a very strong personal relationship with Ertewan.
(11:51):
Now I'm not a fan of Urtwan's, but the President
thinks very highly of Ertwan, so highly that the President
and I say so, now we know the story. The
President I st en route and once he got to Israel,
got General l CCI on the phone, and he's very
close to l cc. He saw at the beginning how
highly speaks of LCS. And this comes from the fact
that l cse is really the first international figure he
(12:15):
met in the twenty sixteen during the UN in the
race against Hillary Clinton, and President Trump's the first person
he met, and they got along famously. In fact, l
cc canceled the meeting with Hillary Clinton said don't need
to see her. I think this guy's gonna win, and
I like the cut of his jib. He convinced l
CC to invite Netnyah, who had not been part of this.
(12:35):
I think that was part of political reasons. Lsese just
can't be seen having given the controversy of Egypt's relationships
with Israel the pass and driving peace steals. It's quite controversial.
Sadat was assassinated for his role in that, so he
was not invited. The president worked l CC and Lsese
(12:56):
gave a invitation. Now we know from reporting from major
news sources is that Ertawan was in the air from
Turkey coming in and one said, hell, ho, hangover a second,
let me get this right. Netnya, who's been invited. Well,
here's what we're going to do. And to the president,
I states, Elcci, if Netna who comes, I'm out. And
since the Turks are providing the security force for Gaza,
(13:21):
you see where I'm going on us am I telegraphing
this too much. A total reordering of the Middle East
happened today, not in Jerusalem. It happened in the resort on
the on the shores of the Red Sea in Egypt.
What did President Trump say, We're going to put the
(13:42):
old feuds and bitter hatreds in back of us and
this is now the new geographic center of the world.
He has a very strong relationship with Turkey, with Ertawan,
with Egypt, with Alcci, with the family that runs Qatar
very close. He's given him an Article five protection argo
fire protection for Qatar, and of course NBZ and UAE.
(14:05):
You can tell in the Spring meeting. I think NBZ
and probably President Trump had the strongest relationship. Those four
relationships are all stronger than the one he has with Netnaho.
I know Seb Gorka, my good friend, doctor Seb Gorka,
I've worked with for years, think very highly of. We
do come down on different differently on this topic, and
(14:27):
he said my comments to they were visible about tel
Aviv Levin in the Israel First crowd. But them is
just a fact, stock, just a fact. It's very obvious
what's happening here. A Palestinian state with two million Palestinians
is being created in the Gaza strip with golf Emirate
(14:48):
money and Turkish arms. This is the Turks who would
not come to a meeting if Netna, who was there?
Think about that for a second, short break back in
a moment, kill America's voice. Family, Are you on Getter yet?

I want of the audience to remember this and remember
(15:41):
this day. The nations of the Earth, including the most
powerful nations in Western Europe, all of the most powerful
nations in the Arab and Muslim world, gathered today on
the shores of the Red Sea and signed a document.
(16:03):
In that document think twenty points of a peace plant.
The sign the entire time was peace in the Middle East.
This peace plan calls for huge commitments of capital to
be invested into the war torn well, it's not war torn.
Let's say what it is. It's like Dresden in nineteen
(16:24):
forty five. Right, it's really repulsive what Gatzla looks like.
And as people start going through there, as we say
in the Navy, I think you should stand by for
some heavy rolls because I think on this topic of transparency,
what happened to the hostage is terrible. We still don't
(16:46):
know about October seventh, and the reason we don't know
about October seventh Isntanyahu's government has blocked any attempt to
have an inquiry of formal inquiry and should get to
the bottom of it. And as an American citizen, I
think we should all demand that we know exactly what
went on until we buy into any more of what's
happening over there. But with the most powerful nations on
(17:10):
Earth signing a document, a deal, a twenty point deal
with huge commitments of financial resources to rebuild, a commitment
that the two million Palestinians will not leave Gaza, will
not leave Gaza. They will not be driven out into
the Sinai to live in tents or die, or Ethiopia,
(17:32):
you know, the Horn of Africa, all those crackpot ideas,
and they were crackpot ideas have all been thrown aside.
In addition, there's a working of a security guarantee which
looks like would not have American troops, which obviously we
would oppose dramatically. We don't need to do that. There
(17:53):
is aren't going to be some coordinating factor from Doha,
from Sencom. In fact, the Abilene charge of Soundcom. If
you saw today in the footage of at the kanesset,
they had three or four American generals and an admiral
and a couple of generals there. They are the I
think the Sencom commanders. The are the heads of Sencom
and aspects of the Secretary of the War Department Pete
(18:17):
Hexas with his air That will be part of this,
but it will be a you got to call it
what is it's kind of an Arab or Muslim legion
that will provide the security coordinated by Turkey, the Ottoman
Empire and the Caliphate. And we know what Erdawan is
about the Caliphate. Those are just facts. Netna who was
(18:41):
not invited, not in the room, not in the deal
when the negotiation of those points took place. Ambassador Deurmer
and Ron Dermer is a good man. If you get
if you ever know him, he's a good man. He's
obviously one of Netaho's top guys. He's been ambassador here,
really knows Washington knows, that Trump knows, Jared very well knows,
(19:02):
Witkoff knows the entire nos Maga. A good man. He
was not really part of the negotiations. They really weren't
looking for Israel's inputs. And I hate to be so
blunt about it, but there's so much happy talk coming
out of the Israel first crowd that just doesn't face reality.
Reality is you got yourself a two state solution, and
(19:25):
not just a two state solution, but a two state
solution with big time muscle in back of the Palestinians,
big time money from the Golf Emirates, and big time
security from the combination of Muslim and Arab nations who
even selling arms to and training their military for decade
after decade after decade, including a NATO member. I might add,
(19:47):
which is Turkey that will sees up the same Turkey
that the very mention that net Yahoo was even coming
had been offered an invitation told him in the air.
If that is the case, and Netanya's coming. I'm turning
my jet around even though I'm in Egyptian airspace. I
want you to contemplate that to what reality is. That's reality,
(20:11):
and people can put the spin on it anyway. But
what's going to happen in Judeo Samaria is not going
to be any more Israel if the historic homeland and
heart of it, of which I've said, hey, there's a
compelling argument there, and this is why on a Christian state,
which I say, if you don't have a Christian state,
(20:31):
if you don't have a Christian state within twenty years,
I'm not sure you're gonna have Israel. Joe Gilbert today
independent filmmaker, a very smart guy about the region and
obviously took He said some things about gods in the
Palestinians that I maybe not backed up, and you know,
he got called down a little bit by Kurt Mills.
(20:52):
They got into a little bit. That's fine. People have
different opinions and maybe garner facts in their own way.
But Joe Gilbert's even more. He's more adamant than I
am about the political defeat of net Nyahuism in this endeavor,
and of course tel Aviv Levin is out saying about
(21:12):
you know, Frances Trump said about the bombing and the bombing,
and the bombing was socianto. Come on, man, knock it off.
The bombing was not about. The bombing was to shut
down any chance that net Nyaho would be able to
drive President Trump to support regime change and to finish
the argument totally of total obliteration. And also Netnyahuo not
(21:34):
learning his lesson, because what he did there was try
to decapitate the Iranian command, particularly to kill the negotiators.
He didn't want to negotiate deal. They killed the negotiating,
They targeted the negotiators. Whitkoff couldn't go to a meeting
because they were all dead, or at least purported to
be dead. I think later it came it turned out
that they all were not dead, but they were targeted.
(21:55):
But he killed the hamask guys weeks later without getting
President Trump's authority or even a fare thee well, no
no indication all till the missiles I think were airborne.
That is, I keep saying, you got to go pretty
far in the woods to hit President Trump's tripwire, and
that's where it hit it. And the outcome of that
is what you saw today. If you wanted the signal
(22:17):
that was by the Red Sea, if you wanted the noise,
that was what's happening in Israel. It's a celebratory day,
But the generations in sixty seven and seventy three that
built Israel and took on every Arab army that did
sneak attacks from forty eight to sixty seven to seventy three,
they would have never found themselves in this situation. I understand,
(22:40):
and particularly President Trump understands because he spent an hour
with the families, just hearing their stories and sitting there
and asking questions so he could hear more. A man
that came off an eight hour red eye and had
to do one major evolution after the other, he cleared
time and actually became very late getting to Egypt to
hear their stories. At the end of the day, it
(23:01):
was twenty hostages, and I realized Israel's celebrating, And I
think that says more about the therapeutic society than the
culture they in the United States used to have. Is
what I'm saying, hard and tough. Yes, it's hard and tough.
That's one of the reasons I have people watch the
film Twelve o'clock Hye, twelve o'clock Eye is one of
the hardest movies you'll ever watch about war, where they
(23:24):
understand the sacrifices that have to be made, and quite frankly,
the sacrifices that you don't get any say so in
that you're just going to be You are expendable, and
you're going to be expendable. You're going to be expendable
for a greater cause. Today did change. It was an
inflection point in the Middle East, and you're not going
(23:45):
to unwind it. You're not going to unwind it. So
I think we have to be realistic. But I stick
by what I said at the National National Conservatism Convention.
I think I gave the keynote that wrapped it up
or close to wrapping it up. And the geopolitical world
today where President Trump has to deal with the Bloodlins
this week, and is America going to get engaged as
(24:07):
a as a supplier of offensive become an offensive combatant
on the supply side, which changes Russia's already said, Hey,
if this thing goes down like this, NATO's open open season,
that is going to be a major, major thing that
will change this country's life and your life. But that
(24:29):
even pales in comparison to what the Chinese Comras' parties doing.
The Chinese Comras party understands they have amazing they have
incredible leverage over us right now. We have said this
now for years and years and years. If you've listened
to the show that we warned we have to decouple.
And yeah, the couple may may have a couple of
speed bumps in it, but if you don't have decoupled,
they're going to put a gun to your head one
(24:50):
day when they think they've got you. And President Trump,
I think he has already bounced off the terrorists. But
I might add, don't take it from Steve Bannon. Let's
take it from the market of something that's been a
hedge for five thousand years. Gold Gold today blew through
forty one hundred I think it's forty one thirty nine.
It's up one hundred and thirty bucks. Blew through forty
(25:11):
one hundred dollars. That is a world of sophisticated investors saying, yo,
I think I need part of my assets in physical
gold right because we are in very uncertain times geopolitically,
financially and the market's telling you something. Of course, the
stock market came back today because Pres Trump say, I'm
(25:33):
not going to hit him with one hundred percent terrorists.
But the Chinese Counties Party is playing smash mouth here.
They're playing smash mouth. That's basically the way they know
how to play. And President Trump put a true social say, hey, look,
she had a bad day. He and I are friends.
We're going to work this out. We only wish good
to the Chinese people into China. Of course, we in
(25:54):
the warroom always wish well to allow Baijing the Chinese people,
but unfortunately they're under the rule of the worst, most
brutal dictatorship in modern history. And as I've said many times,
I include the Nazis in that, I include Stalin, I
include the Bolsheviks, I include Paul Pott. Let's throw the
(26:17):
Imperial Japanese High Command. You know you pick them and
uh that this week are the two major events President
Trump going back to Washington work with Scott Bess and
others to deal with the Chinese Comrais Party, and then
to sit down with Zelenski. This guy does not get
a second This trip today was a day trip. He
(26:40):
took a Red Eye flew there to Israel first totally
historically historical what he did in Israel, then goes to Egypt,
then gets on a plane and comes back. He'll be
there for Charlie Kirk's the awarding of Charlie Kirk of
the Presidential Medal of Freedom of Orner short break.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
The US Navy has always been the iron will of
a proud and mighty nation, pushing forward through the currents
and through the spray of raging combat and the Fogo
Naval War.
Speaker 7 (27:13):
From the American Revolution until today, the story of the
US Navy is a tale of loyalty, sacrifice, and commitment,
stretching back two hundred and fifty years.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
If the Navy has never failed to hunt, kill, and
to win. Through it all, the United States naviers kept
the stars and stripes soaring high and proud above. You've
conquered raging oceans and brave, ferocious storms to vanquish America's enemies,
and America's Navy never ever gives up the ship. We
(27:43):
own disguise, please stalk the depths, and we rule the scenes.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
God bless the United States Navy.
Speaker 7 (27:57):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
I love that in the real clear defense, which is
one of the most prominent sites around Aggregation Sites. Sister
site to Real Clear Markets and Real Clear Politics put
up a special on our Navy two fifty and Cleo Pascal,
myself and others talking about the geopolitics of the twenty
first century. I'm gonna have Cleos actually with Admiral Masso
(28:19):
and others in Philadelphia at the at the parade and
also the dinner tonight for the Navies two fifty. We've
got my favorite combat historian, Patrick k o'donald joins us. Patrick,
walk us through this. You you've been in bed with
the Marines. By the way, we're doing Marine Corps two fifty.
(28:39):
Although the Marine Corps ten I think November. We're gonna
do the Marine Corps two fifty this Saturday from Camp Pendleton.
We're going to start with the war room at ten
am in the morning, Easter daylight time, and go all
throughout the day. You won't want to miss this. As
one of the former Marines that knows Cleo very well
(29:00):
and watched watch the Navy, said tell Bannon. The Marines
are really looking forward when he does the Men's Department,
Department of the Navy, So we love the Marine Corps's
gonna be very special. Already know from the guys putting
it on it's going to be incredible. So Patrick K O'Donnell,
you've been in bed with the marines. You know the
naval traditions, the importance of the navy and building the country.
(29:23):
The floor is yours, sir well.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
I have a great article in bright bart On the
front page today on the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary
of the Navy, which has some very humble origins. A
fishing boat that was outfitted to attack the greatest navy
in the world at the time, the British Navy, and
they went after they went after the supply ships.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
And it's really a remarkable story.
Speaker 5 (29:48):
And that begins when Washington arrives in Cambridge in the
summer of seventeen seventy five, and to his utter horror,
he realizes that his men only have thirty to forty
cartridges in their cartridge box. They could not repel the
British if they attacked out of Boston. It was a
(30:09):
very They were very challenged by the lack of gunpowder.
The first thing he does is actually takes the riflemen
that come up and puts them out and demonstrates how
accurate they are, these snipers, and then they start taking
off British heads, keeping people down, their heads down.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
But then he has to come up with.
Speaker 5 (30:27):
An idea of how to get more gunpowder, and he
decides to go to the man that's actually guarding his camp,
John Glover, who has a number of naval ships they
trade across the world. And Glover's mariners have their own
ships that they've been trading for years. And he decides
(30:49):
to outfit one of his fishing boats with four guns
and then go after British supply ships. And this ship
is called the Hannah. It's the summer of seventeen seventy five,
and this is the humble origins of the United States Navy.
And it's all done without congressional approval. Washington authorizes Glover
(31:12):
to outfit the boat behind the back of Congress, and
Glover is got who was broke.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Exactly.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
And then there's a fascinating story because you are able
to own cannons at this time, unlike you know what
Joe Biden said and John Glover has is you know
a number of cannons that they used to on their
ships to protect themselves against pirates and other vessels. And
you know, there's a kind of great get off my
lawn story where in seventeen seventy three they help whether
(31:49):
they create a smallpox hospital in Marblehead and the loyalists
in the town aren't having it, and they surround Glover's house.
But they take one of these four pound guns and
puts it in the foyer of his house. As the
mob surrounds the house, he orders the front door thrust open,
and he has a torch in his hand and he says, disperse,
(32:14):
and the people, you know, this crowd of loyalists with
pitchforks and torches dispersed.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
That's the.
Speaker 4 (32:26):
John Glover who has this.
Speaker 5 (32:28):
Now both that's going out with four pound guns, four
of them, and they then attack the You know, they
have a letter of mark basically to act as privateers exactly.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Hang on. They were all freebooters and privateers, privateers letters
of mark. It's amazing story. Here's I want people to
keep in mind. The Royal Navy as an institution became
one of the most powerful and important institutions in world history.
It's the way that and they start it as freebooters.
They started with Francis draking. These guys just taking twenty
(33:04):
percent off the top and given the rest of the
crown as freebooters. But they built an institution that changed
world history and built a British Empire. This is how
a small island nation became a global you know, global dominance.
Really a small island nation that didn't have a tremendous
maritime history at the time, they kind of learned it
(33:27):
and then built an institution. That institution when you have
supply ships, the logistics of it, the coordination. If you
go back and look at the Woryal Navy at the time,
it ran like a like a like a Swiss Watch.
It was so organized and down to everything, every move,
the way the way the crews worked, the way the
officers trained things, the way you had logistics trains, and
(33:50):
you had the uh you had the boats that would
go in escort. It was highly sophisticated. And here a
bunch of collection of freebooters with a letter of mark
from a government that doesn't really even exist at the
Continental Congress and Washington, because the Continental Congress is broke,
he's not even looking for If he goes and asks
for money, they're gonna say no. So this is I'm
(34:11):
going to beg forgiveness and ask permission. Just put some guns,
put some guns on the boat, and just go ahead
there and take them on.
Speaker 5 (34:20):
The guns on the boat. And they go after supply ships.
And the first ship that they capture is it's a
it's a ship that is manned by British sailors and
they are extremely excited to have their first prize and
they bring it into court and they realize that the
(34:40):
British have just they have recaptured a ship that was
owned by a member of Congress John Langdon. And what
happens is Washington is horrified, but the men, these marbleheaders,
have said, look, hey, we fairly got it. This was
a British ship that was a prize ship. And what
(35:01):
happens is you have one of the first mutinies that
takes place, and the crew literally mutinies on board. I
tell the story and the indispensables and Washington quells it,
and then they go back out and they start to hunt.
But this is the organ What's amazing about this story, Steve,
is this is the beginning of sovereignty for a We're
(35:23):
not even a United States yet, a collection of states though,
But when you are starting to build and outfit vessels,
you are creating a sovereign nation.
Speaker 4 (35:34):
A sovereign nation has vessels.
Speaker 5 (35:36):
The first flag is the appeal to Heaven, and that
comes from these ships as well. This is Washington's Navy
or Washington's cruisers. And it's all done behind Congress for
several weeks, and then eventually, on October thirteenth today, two
hundred and fifty years ago, Congress makes the authorization to
(36:00):
to outfit armed vessels to go against Great Britain.
Speaker 4 (36:06):
And it's then that Washington reveals that he is his.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
Own secret navy, which then folds.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
But think about it. The continentally YEP, after Lexington and Concord,
after the Siege of Boston Bunker Hill. These guys are
smart guys. It's just like the run up to World
War One before Pearl Harbor. These guys. This is seventeen
seventy five, folks, the fourth of July Independence Day, the declaration,
(36:34):
signing of the declarations not until next July fourth in
seventeen seventy six. And then immediately the largest expeditionary forces
we have every year on Peter we have Patrick cadonald
On our Fourth of July special to talk about what
was already coming to Staten Island, in the vast armada
that was going to be there. Patrick, we got to bounce.
(36:55):
I want everybody grace if you put the story up,
Everybody go to Breitbart. We're gonna put it up for
this amazing story.
Speaker 5 (37:00):
It's also on my Twitter account at Combat Historian and PATRICKK.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
O'donald dot com.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (37:07):
The book is The Indispensables.
Speaker 5 (37:09):
It tells the story of the first eighty and this
is asymmetric warfare, Steve. This causes the insurance rates to
skyrocket on all commercial vessels, and it's economic war against
Great Britain.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
If you want to read two books back to back,
they'll explain the revolution to you like nobody's business, like
you reading a novel. Washington's Immortals about that amazing regiment
coming out of coming out of Maryland. And then The
Indispensables just incredible about the Marvel, the men of Marvelhead,
the cussedness, the cussedness and grit we stand on the
(37:47):
shoulders of giants. When you read these books, you just
say you're in awe virtually every page. Patrick Aodonald one
more time, where's your where's your social media? Where do
people go?

Speaker 2 (38:12):
It's amazing. We we got, we got, we gotta get
five thousand five stars. It's a classic. Thank you, sir,
appreciate you, honored, Thank you, Steve to go from something
you should be very proud of about your country, kind
of the grit of the American you know, working man
and woman building this country, to something that you're not
(38:35):
gonna not gonna love. Here's what I don't get, Dave Walsh. Uh,
they're telling me that if you backed out Data Center investment,
that GDP would only be like zero point one percent.
I don't totally believe that, but everything is you warned
us on AI on the AI bubble or the AI
jab apocalypse is driven by energy, and maybe waters is
(38:58):
a subset, but energy, what is going on. We've got
a governor's race in New Jersey that's going to come down.
I think to about energy and out of control energy
prices that are runaway and down in Florida, you still
haven't sorted out that mess with Florida Power and Light, Sir.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
They're working on it now. The data center AI thing,
the tip of the speer in the country for the
moment is Virginia, Northern Virginia, Pennsylvania, over to New Jersey
and Maryland north of Washington, where you've got the biggest
concentration of AI and data centers. And now this battle
and the growth of AI between ratepayers who are short
(39:37):
of electricity in PJAM that those states are in PJAM
FOURD auction prices up by a factor at ten times
for electric power because of the existing shortage of electricity.
Now you've got AI owners demanding gigawad thousand megawad two
thousand megawad generation facilities to be built to steal electrification
(39:57):
resources from ratepayers. So you've got a big battle and
it comes it comes to the four in the electricity rates.
New Jersey looks like going up by a factor of
four times, Maryland by a factor potentially fifty in the
next couple of years, and even Pennsylvania in a region
particularly full of natural gas. Because of this domination, now
(40:18):
demand on top of the existing shortage we've been talking
about for three years due to solar and wind shortage
now accelerated by a.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
Hang on one second, I want to hold you through
the brick when we get to this, because this is
God's going to drive people into bankruptcy. Birch goal, take
your phone out. Text Bannon at nine eight Get the
Ultimate Guide for investing in gold and precious metals in
the Age of Trump. Gold blew through forty one hundred
bucks to day, folks, and I mean blew through it.
(40:50):
You need to understand why that is happening. Shortbreak, let's take.
Speaker 4 (41:00):
Here's your host, Stephen K.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Bah Birch Gold dot com. One of the big things
that Chinese companies parties trying to do is dedollarization, working
with the bricks nations but also working with others to
make sure transactions are now not converted into dollars. They're
trying to break the dollars the prime reserve currency. If
(41:23):
that happens, it will not be good. I am not
saying we need to be the prime reserve currency. We
have to because tons of obligations internationally come with it.
But if we're not going to have it, it should
be to a national discussion that it's a decision made
by citizens of the United States of America. That's not
what's happening now. We're being driven into it. Birch Gold
(41:45):
dot com promo code Bannon the end of the dollar empire,
get it most importantly talked to Philip Patrick we first
started working with them. Goal was eleven hundred bucks an ounce.
The reason we came up with this concept to teach
people about capital markets, to teach people about fiat currency,
to teach people why gold's been a hedge for five
thousand years is because they said the time dark clouds
(42:05):
are coming and gold is going to be a hedge
more than ever. But eventually it's going to become an
asset class that central banks and money center banks are
going to start buying instead of things like the Euro.
And guess what, voila, we're here, baby. But you need
to understand that. Don't take it from me. The show's
(42:25):
not about me sitting here going yelling and screaming at
you and dada. It's to give you information, So go
check it out today. You need to do this for
your family yourself, your financial stability, your country to be
able to think through these issues like these deficits were running.
If you got an issue with the IRS, it ain't
going to go away. IRS is going to look for
(42:46):
every penny they got because we're running I don't know
one point eight to two tree dollars deficits a year.
They're coming for everybody's money if they think you owe it,
and I know you may have a different opinion if
you fail to file eight finally, or you've got a
discrepancy with them, you got a letter with them. Don't
curl up in a ball in the corner. Reach out
(43:06):
to Tax Network USA. They solved a billion dollars worth
of tax issues. Nothing you tell them is going to
shock them. They've heard it all and they knew the
guys to work with eight hundred ninety five eight one thousand,
and tell them Steve benn Essential will get a free consultation.
Do that today, Dave Walsh. One of these things is
about energy and about the data centers, and quite frankly,
these I thought things like Florida Power and Light, I
(43:29):
thought they had citizen I thought they were set up
as public utilities so they can get feedback from these
folks called rate payers. Are schrendricks out there called American
citizens of this case, Florida citizens. Why is this Why
is that system not working? Why do they seem to
be going down this decarbonization, crazy green new deal scam
(43:52):
of these massive, massive capital investments from the President United
States against it and more importantly the folks in Florida
against it, Sir.
Speaker 5 (44:03):
Of.
Speaker 3 (44:03):
According to the State Office of Public Council, who I
speak to periodically, a record number of interveners and complainers
have stepped up about their present ten billion dollar rate case,
an all time national record high rate case that FB
and L have pushed forward for the next four years
now reduced to seven billion. So some progress is being made,
(44:24):
but that's about building one hundred and thirty more utility
scale solar farms at a cost of about seven billion
at this point for the next four years. The next
ten years, the three regulated utilities, Duke, FBL and Tico
Tap Electric have a plan to.
Speaker 2 (44:40):
Build forty nine billion.
Speaker 3 (44:42):
Dollars worth of solar farms and utility scale battery storage,
which if it were a combined cycle, would cost less
than half of that to build natural gas fired power.
That runs all the time, but no, they're opting for
the far more expensive capital cost two and a half
times more costly capital costs in battery storage to make
more money through their rates. They get a ten and
(45:04):
a half to eleven percent rate recovery on capital investments,
and the more they invest, of course, the more they make.
And they're opting for between the two choices solar and gas.
They're opting for solar, which is very part time here
five hours, five hours a day and ruins reliability and
also ruins the opportunity for data centers and service centers
unless they deploy some of the very large number of
(45:27):
gas turbines that they've ordered already from ge Vernova, which
is adding to the shortage of those the fact that
Southeast utilities have bought a record number of gas turbans
in the last ten months from the major three OEMs,
but they're not deploying them for rate payers. They're waiting
for AI and data center clients to come along and
(45:48):
then go.
Speaker 2 (45:49):
Ahead, wow wow.
Speaker 3 (45:54):
Gas created by the utilities of the bottom.
Speaker 2 (45:57):
All waiting for AI to come. We got hey, I'm
gonna get you back. I'm gonna get you back on
here because we need to help the folks down in
Florida get organized in this because it's unacceptable. Here's the
question I got if people know I'm not a big
Rant Santas fan on a national levels presidential timber and
uh we said this when he tried to challenge President
(46:19):
Trump in that ridiculously failed effort to try to deny
President Trump the nomination. But I think he's been a
very good governor. Rond de Santis is kind of a populist.
Where's DeSantis in this? I can't I can't believe with
a governor like DeSantis, we couldn't solve this thing in
ten minutes. Where's Ronde de Santis, the populis governor of
(46:39):
Florida on this? Sir, well to hold him to account.
Speaker 3 (46:42):
During his administration, the entire seven years of it, every
single submittal before the Public Service Commission for new capacity
power has been for utility scale solar. Every single one
of them has been approved going away by the Public
Service Commission appointed by him. So he's he is certainly
aware of this. If he's not, he's stupid, And he's
(47:04):
not stupid, he's aware.
Speaker 2 (47:07):
Donations say the Sants is a very smart guy. You're
telling me he's bought into this whole solar madness. You're
telling me he's bought into the solar madness. Or is
this because this is where the power company is going
to make more money?
Speaker 3 (47:23):
This is related to the donations to packs from the
power companies. They dominate politics in Florida. Duke Tico and
FBL dominate the State House, that state Senate, and the
governor through ACTI nations, so they basically get their way
on David City.
Speaker 2 (47:41):
I'm going to have you back on real quickly social media.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
Where do people go ex true social and getter at
Dave Walsh Energy. I'll be at the Right Republican Club

next
Period of time, like I think nobody's seen before, and
we have tremendous stuff, as you know in Israel, and
now we're in a country where a friend of mine
is a very powerful leader, and my friend is right
here the president also the general, you know, sometimes I
(00:21):
call him usually I call him the general because he's
both and he's good at both. And they've done a
fantastic job. And they have very little crime, you know,
because they don't play games. That's why they don't play
games like we do in the United States, with governors
that have no idea what they're doing, but they don't
have crime. I ask about crime and they almost don't
(00:42):
even know what I'm talking about. So it's a great
tribute to this man. He's done a fantastic job in
bringing this country together, and the United States is with
him all the way. And they had a very important
role with Hamas. In fact that the General was uh
right here was very instrumental because Hamas respects this country
(01:04):
and they respect the leadership of Egypt. So had you've
played a very important role.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
I appreciate it very much.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
It's a tremendous day for the Middle East, and you
can see that this is probably the greatest assemblage of
countries in terms of wealth and power, maybe ever assembled,
and it's just an honored be a part of it.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
We're going to be.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Signing a document that's going to spell out of lot
of rules and regulations and lots of other things, and
it's very comprehensive. But we've already signed documents in the
Middle East and having to do with Israel and Hamas and.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Just about everything else. And it's it's.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Really working out incredibly well. The hostages, as you know,
were let go on time, on schedule, the very sad
situation of bodies, which was always a sad situation, and
they being sought out and they're working with many different
people finding some were brought in and some were not,
(02:07):
and they're working out to find out where those bodies are.
It's hard to believe that you even have to say
something like that. It's so sad. It's so sad. But
what's not said is that we have finally after I
guess they say three thousand years, I've heard from three
thousand years to five hundred years, but.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Whatever it is, it's a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
But this was the one. This was the granddaddy of
them all, and frankly, I thought this was probably going
to be the toughest, and maybe in many ways it was.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But we had a lot of good talent.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Steve Whitcoff, Jared and Marco and Pete and General Cain
was so great. John Ratcliffe was incredible. We had an
amazing array of talent today, for the first time anyone
can remember, we have a once in a lifetime chance
to put the old feuds and bitter hatreds behind us.
(02:57):
And that's why so many people in this room.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
They didn't get along. Some did, some didn't, but they're
getting along now. This has brought the people together.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
This is the first time the Middle East crisis has
brought people together as opposed to driving them apart, and
to declare that our future will not be ruled by
the fights of the generation's past, which is foolish. So together,
let us continue in the spirit of cooperation, a good
will that has finally brought us to this incredible, historic breakthrough.
(03:29):
If we do together, we will reach the Middle East's
incredible destiny, a safe and prosperous and beautiful crossroads of
culture and commerce, faith in humanity, and geographic center. This
will be the geographic center of the world. We've all
agreed that supporting Gasm must be done to lift up
(03:50):
the people themselves, but we don't want to fund anything
having to do with the bloodshed, hatred or terror.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
As has happened in the past.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
And for the same reason, we're also agreed that Gaza's
reconstruction requires that it be demilitarized and that a new, honest,
civilian police force must be allowed to create a safe
condition for the people in Gaza. So you have Armenia,
and you have Bahrain, you have Canada. It's so great
(04:20):
to have effect. The President called and he wanted to
know if it's worthwhile. He knew exactly what it was.
He knew the importance. Where's Canada, by the way, where
are you where? He knew the importance of this. He said,
I want to be there. So many people have done
that they called. I mean, they heard about it, and
(04:42):
these are not people that can do that very easily.
They have pretty big schedules to put it, the most
powerful people. And I appreciate you being here very much. President, Fantastic, fantastic,
He gone mass about.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
I'm glad you have a gread to meet. Resident.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I got a good question started. This is the primal
scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because
we're going to medieval on these people. There's not got
(05:21):
a free shot. And all these networks lying about the people,
the people have had a belly full of it. I
know you don't like hearing that. I know you tried
to do everything in the world to stop that, but
you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
And where do people like that go to share the
big line? Mega media?
Speaker 5 (05:37):
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of
these people had a conscience.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
If that answer is to save my country, this country
will be saved.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Here's your host, Stephen K.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Math.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
It's Monday, thirteenth October in the air for lored twenty
twenty five. It is both Columbus Day and it is
also the twenty fiftieth anniversary commemoration of the birth of
the United States Navy. Patrick K. O'Donnell is going to
join us. I want to make sure that even given
everything we did with Navy two fifty, that we don't
miss the actual date itself and Patrick, the best combat
(06:23):
historian of this generation, is going to join us here
this afternoon. So the President took was in Israel for
eight hours and then he went to Egypt and I
think he ran over the clock there, so he's now airborne.
I believe we'll be back at the White House around
midnight to focus on two pressing priorities. Zelensky, our favorite
(06:50):
guy here at the White House, right and back in
that right and back in net and Yahoo, is going
to come to the White House on Friday, and they're
going to have a quite important meeting where they're going
to talk about really America's commitment to this war and
the Bloodlands and particularly maybe potentially Tomahawk missiles or other
(07:11):
offensive missiles. Anyway, the whole discussion and strategic discussion about
the kinetic part of the Third World War, which we're
deep into, will be discussed then between now and then
when the President gets back. A pressing concern is the
actual breakout of blatant economic warfare by the Chinese Companies
(07:33):
Party against the United States of America. This comes with
a letter the Chinese Companies Party she sending notifications to
countries about component parts and about trade restrictions and controls.
A big part of this gets down to rare earth,
particularly heavy rare earths that are used in our industrial process.
(07:54):
And people have argued that, particularly with magnets and these
other things, that President Trump thought they worked at a
rap pro Schman or an accommodation back in June with
Scott Bessant and Peter Navarro and our trade representative that
we had worked at a rep Rochemont. The Chinese Company
Party does not look at it like that. They look
(08:15):
at this as a leverageable moment. And this is quite serious.
You've got guys on CNBC today and in the Financial
Time saying, hey, we should have stockpiled these things. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
And we talked about this on Breitbart Radio in twenty
fifteen when in the East China Sea was shut down
by the Chinese Companies Party, not the South China. See
(08:37):
the East China Sea was shut down and they shut
down rare earth. They threaten rare earth shut off to
Japan for its industrial process because of an issue with
fishing boats that were really pla spy boats vessels. It
got pretty gnarly on air rights and navigation rights into
the East China Sea and the first time the CCP
(08:59):
used earths, And if I remember correctly, I think we
had a guy named Eric Prince and others on the show.
We were doing the Daily Show at that time, had
him on the Daily Show. We said, this is a
very big deal because the Japanese could actually vapor loock
on manufacturing. That's what the president faces when he gets back.
The reality of the two major conflicts on the Eurasian
(09:22):
land mass won, an advanced military conflict, bloodier than the
first couple of years of World War Two, that would
be in Ukraine with no sign of abatement. And President Trump,
the empathetic President Trump, which Kurt Mills I think today
on the Overnight Show did such a great job in
President Trump listening taken an hour, as tired as he
(09:44):
must have been, to spend an hour with the hostage families,
hearing their heart rendering stories of what they went through
as hostages over the last year. President Trump clearly very
moved by the slaughter. And that's what it is. The
slaughter in Ukraine, with I think now getting close to
two million dead and wounded on the Ukrainian side, a
(10:06):
million to a million and a half wounded on the
Russian side, these numbers are just horrific. Something else that
President Trump is going to see that I think is
going to be a quite big issue. And you know,
Kurt and Mills is a quite controversial figure, but nobody
I've known Kurt now for ten fifteen years and one
of the smartest guys around. He said, hey, because Dave
(10:27):
Brett made this brilliant point about transparency. And over the
next couple of days, you're going to see transparency both
on the hostages side of what they really went through,
but also as people start getting into Gaza, and the
footage we've seen coming out of Gaza is pretty horrific.
Kurt Mills referred to it as the world's biggest crime scene.
And what's going to happen because a lot of the
(10:48):
media are some of the media haven't been into certain
areas of town. There's going to be I think, a
as Kurt said, a cyclone of media and we're going
to have to see how it falls out. So on
that front, there's a lot more to come. President Trump
has to deal with really two wars won in economic
with the Chinese Counties Party, which they're looking for a
(11:10):
diverted America because it's one of their basics of their
philosophy of military endeavor is an enemy or an opponent
that is totally focused on something else, they have a
history of striking at that moment. I know the people
(11:30):
around President Trump are quite aware of this. Of course,
Friday was a Lensky and Tomahawk missile. So once again
a day that starts off with a historic day in
the historic part of this, to be blunt is what
happened in Egypt, and people should take this. You know,
President Trump has a very strong personal relationship with Ertewan.
(11:51):
Now I'm not a fan of Urtwan's, but the President
thinks very highly of Ertwan, so highly that the President
and I say so, now we know the story. The
President I st en route and once he got to Israel,
got General l CCI on the phone, and he's very
close to l cc. He saw at the beginning how
highly speaks of LCS. And this comes from the fact
that l cse is really the first international figure he
(12:15):
met in the twenty sixteen during the UN in the
race against Hillary Clinton, and President Trump's the first person
he met, and they got along famously. In fact, l
cc canceled the meeting with Hillary Clinton said don't need
to see her. I think this guy's gonna win, and
I like the cut of his jib. He convinced l
CC to invite Netnyah, who had not been part of this.
(12:35):
I think that was part of political reasons. Lsese just
can't be seen having given the controversy of Egypt's relationships
with Israel the pass and driving peace steals. It's quite controversial.
Sadat was assassinated for his role in that, so he
was not invited. The president worked l CC and Lsese
(12:56):
gave a invitation. Now we know from reporting from major
news sources is that Ertawan was in the air from
Turkey coming in and one said, hell, ho, hangover a second,
let me get this right. Netnya, who's been invited. Well,
here's what we're going to do. And to the president,
I states, Elcci, if Netna who comes, I'm out. And
since the Turks are providing the security force for Gaza,
(13:21):
you see where I'm going on us am I telegraphing
this too much. A total reordering of the Middle East
happened today, not in Jerusalem. It happened in the resort on
the on the shores of the Red Sea in Egypt.
What did President Trump say, We're going to put the
(13:42):
old feuds and bitter hatreds in back of us and
this is now the new geographic center of the world.
He has a very strong relationship with Turkey, with Ertawan,
with Egypt, with Alcci, with the family that runs Qatar
very close. He's given him an Article five protection argo
fire protection for Qatar, and of course NBZ and UAE.
(14:05):
You can tell in the Spring meeting. I think NBZ
and probably President Trump had the strongest relationship. Those four
relationships are all stronger than the one he has with Netnaho.
I know Seb Gorka, my good friend, doctor Seb Gorka,
I've worked with for years, think very highly of. We
do come down on different differently on this topic, and
(14:27):
he said my comments to they were visible about tel
Aviv Levin in the Israel First crowd. But them is
just a fact, stock, just a fact. It's very obvious
what's happening here. A Palestinian state with two million Palestinians
is being created in the Gaza strip with golf Emirate
(14:48):
money and Turkish arms. This is the Turks who would
not come to a meeting if Netna, who was there?
Think about that for a second, short break back in
a moment, kill America's voice. Family, Are you on Getter yet?

I want of the audience to remember this and remember
(15:41):
this day. The nations of the Earth, including the most
powerful nations in Western Europe, all of the most powerful
nations in the Arab and Muslim world, gathered today on
the shores of the Red Sea and signed a document.
(16:03):
In that document think twenty points of a peace plant.
The sign the entire time was peace in the Middle East.
This peace plan calls for huge commitments of capital to
be invested into the war torn well, it's not war torn.
Let's say what it is. It's like Dresden in nineteen
(16:24):
forty five. Right, it's really repulsive what Gatzla looks like.
And as people start going through there, as we say
in the Navy, I think you should stand by for
some heavy rolls because I think on this topic of transparency,
what happened to the hostage is terrible. We still don't
(16:46):
know about October seventh, and the reason we don't know
about October seventh Isntanyahu's government has blocked any attempt to
have an inquiry of formal inquiry and should get to
the bottom of it. And as an American citizen, I
think we should all demand that we know exactly what
went on until we buy into any more of what's
happening over there. But with the most powerful nations on
(17:10):
Earth signing a document, a deal, a twenty point deal
with huge commitments of financial resources to rebuild, a commitment
that the two million Palestinians will not leave Gaza, will
not leave Gaza. They will not be driven out into
the Sinai to live in tents or die, or Ethiopia,
(17:32):
you know, the Horn of Africa, all those crackpot ideas,
and they were crackpot ideas have all been thrown aside.
In addition, there's a working of a security guarantee which
looks like would not have American troops, which obviously we
would oppose dramatically. We don't need to do that. There
(17:53):
is aren't going to be some coordinating factor from Doha,
from Sencom. In fact, the Abilene charge of Soundcom. If
you saw today in the footage of at the kanesset,
they had three or four American generals and an admiral
and a couple of generals there. They are the I
think the Sencom commanders. The are the heads of Sencom
and aspects of the Secretary of the War Department Pete
(18:17):
Hexas with his air That will be part of this,
but it will be a you got to call it
what is it's kind of an Arab or Muslim legion
that will provide the security coordinated by Turkey, the Ottoman
Empire and the Caliphate. And we know what Erdawan is
about the Caliphate. Those are just facts. Netna who was
(18:41):
not invited, not in the room, not in the deal
when the negotiation of those points took place. Ambassador Deurmer
and Ron Dermer is a good man. If you get
if you ever know him, he's a good man. He's
obviously one of Netaho's top guys. He's been ambassador here,
really knows Washington knows, that Trump knows, Jared very well knows,
(19:02):
Witkoff knows the entire nos Maga. A good man. He
was not really part of the negotiations. They really weren't
looking for Israel's inputs. And I hate to be so
blunt about it, but there's so much happy talk coming
out of the Israel first crowd that just doesn't face reality.
Reality is you got yourself a two state solution, and
(19:25):
not just a two state solution, but a two state
solution with big time muscle in back of the Palestinians,
big time money from the Golf Emirates, and big time
security from the combination of Muslim and Arab nations who
even selling arms to and training their military for decade
after decade after decade, including a NATO member. I might add,
(19:47):
which is Turkey that will sees up the same Turkey
that the very mention that net Yahoo was even coming
had been offered an invitation told him in the air.
If that is the case, and Netanya's coming. I'm turning
my jet around even though I'm in Egyptian airspace. I
want you to contemplate that to what reality is. That's reality,
(20:11):
and people can put the spin on it anyway. But
what's going to happen in Judeo Samaria is not going
to be any more Israel if the historic homeland and
heart of it, of which I've said, hey, there's a
compelling argument there, and this is why on a Christian state,
which I say, if you don't have a Christian state,
(20:31):
if you don't have a Christian state within twenty years,
I'm not sure you're gonna have Israel. Joe Gilbert today
independent filmmaker, a very smart guy about the region and
obviously took He said some things about gods in the
Palestinians that I maybe not backed up, and you know,
he got called down a little bit by Kurt Mills.
(20:52):
They got into a little bit. That's fine. People have
different opinions and maybe garner facts in their own way.
But Joe Gilbert's even more. He's more adamant than I
am about the political defeat of net Nyahuism in this endeavor,
and of course tel Aviv Levin is out saying about
(21:12):
you know, Frances Trump said about the bombing and the bombing,
and the bombing was socianto. Come on, man, knock it off.
The bombing was not about. The bombing was to shut
down any chance that net Nyaho would be able to
drive President Trump to support regime change and to finish
the argument totally of total obliteration. And also Netnyahuo not
(21:34):
learning his lesson, because what he did there was try
to decapitate the Iranian command, particularly to kill the negotiators.
He didn't want to negotiate deal. They killed the negotiating,
They targeted the negotiators. Whitkoff couldn't go to a meeting
because they were all dead, or at least purported to
be dead. I think later it came it turned out
that they all were not dead, but they were targeted.
(21:55):
But he killed the hamask guys weeks later without getting
President Trump's authority or even a fare thee well, no
no indication all till the missiles I think were airborne.
That is, I keep saying, you got to go pretty
far in the woods to hit President Trump's tripwire, and
that's where it hit it. And the outcome of that
is what you saw today. If you wanted the signal
(22:17):
that was by the Red Sea, if you wanted the noise,
that was what's happening in Israel. It's a celebratory day,
But the generations in sixty seven and seventy three that
built Israel and took on every Arab army that did
sneak attacks from forty eight to sixty seven to seventy three,
they would have never found themselves in this situation. I understand,
(22:40):
and particularly President Trump understands because he spent an hour
with the families, just hearing their stories and sitting there
and asking questions so he could hear more. A man
that came off an eight hour red eye and had
to do one major evolution after the other, he cleared
time and actually became very late getting to Egypt to
hear their stories. At the end of the day, it
(23:01):
was twenty hostages, and I realized Israel's celebrating, And I
think that says more about the therapeutic society than the
culture they in the United States used to have. Is
what I'm saying, hard and tough. Yes, it's hard and tough.
That's one of the reasons I have people watch the
film Twelve o'clock Hye, twelve o'clock Eye is one of
the hardest movies you'll ever watch about war, where they
(23:24):
understand the sacrifices that have to be made, and quite frankly,
the sacrifices that you don't get any say so in
that you're just going to be You are expendable, and
you're going to be expendable. You're going to be expendable
for a greater cause. Today did change. It was an
inflection point in the Middle East, and you're not going
(23:45):
to unwind it. You're not going to unwind it. So
I think we have to be realistic. But I stick
by what I said at the National National Conservatism Convention.
I think I gave the keynote that wrapped it up
or close to wrapping it up. And the geopolitical world
today where President Trump has to deal with the Bloodlins
this week, and is America going to get engaged as
(24:07):
a as a supplier of offensive become an offensive combatant
on the supply side, which changes Russia's already said, Hey,
if this thing goes down like this, NATO's open open season,
that is going to be a major, major thing that
will change this country's life and your life. But that
(24:29):
even pales in comparison to what the Chinese Comras' parties doing.
The Chinese Comras party understands they have amazing they have
incredible leverage over us right now. We have said this
now for years and years and years. If you've listened
to the show that we warned we have to decouple.
And yeah, the couple may may have a couple of
speed bumps in it, but if you don't have decoupled,
they're going to put a gun to your head one
(24:50):
day when they think they've got you. And President Trump,
I think he has already bounced off the terrorists. But
I might add, don't take it from Steve Bannon. Let's
take it from the market of something that's been a
hedge for five thousand years. Gold Gold today blew through
forty one hundred I think it's forty one thirty nine.
It's up one hundred and thirty bucks. Blew through forty
(25:11):
one hundred dollars. That is a world of sophisticated investors saying, yo,
I think I need part of my assets in physical
gold right because we are in very uncertain times geopolitically,
financially and the market's telling you something. Of course, the
stock market came back today because Pres Trump say, I'm
(25:33):
not going to hit him with one hundred percent terrorists.
But the Chinese Counties Party is playing smash mouth here.
They're playing smash mouth. That's basically the way they know
how to play. And President Trump put a true social say, hey, look,
she had a bad day. He and I are friends.
We're going to work this out. We only wish good
to the Chinese people into China. Of course, we in
(25:54):
the warroom always wish well to allow Baijing the Chinese people,
but unfortunately they're under the rule of the worst, most
brutal dictatorship in modern history. And as I've said many times,
I include the Nazis in that, I include Stalin, I
include the Bolsheviks, I include Paul Pott. Let's throw the
(26:17):
Imperial Japanese High Command. You know you pick them and
uh that this week are the two major events President
Trump going back to Washington work with Scott Bess and
others to deal with the Chinese Comrais Party, and then
to sit down with Zelenski. This guy does not get
a second This trip today was a day trip. He
(26:40):
took a Red Eye flew there to Israel first totally
historically historical what he did in Israel, then goes to Egypt,
then gets on a plane and comes back. He'll be
there for Charlie Kirk's the awarding of Charlie Kirk of
the Presidential Medal of Freedom of Orner short break.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
The US Navy has always been the iron will of
a proud and mighty nation, pushing forward through the currents
and through the spray of raging combat and the Fogo
Naval War.
Speaker 7 (27:13):
From the American Revolution until today, the story of the
US Navy is a tale of loyalty, sacrifice, and commitment,
stretching back two hundred and fifty years.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
If the Navy has never failed to hunt, kill, and
to win. Through it all, the United States naviers kept
the stars and stripes soaring high and proud above. You've
conquered raging oceans and brave, ferocious storms to vanquish America's enemies,
and America's Navy never ever gives up the ship. We
(27:43):
own disguise, please stalk the depths, and we rule the scenes.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
God bless the United States Navy.
Speaker 7 (27:57):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
I love that in the real clear defense, which is
one of the most prominent sites around Aggregation Sites. Sister
site to Real Clear Markets and Real Clear Politics put
up a special on our Navy two fifty and Cleo Pascal,
myself and others talking about the geopolitics of the twenty
first century. I'm gonna have Cleos actually with Admiral Masso
(28:19):
and others in Philadelphia at the at the parade and
also the dinner tonight for the Navies two fifty. We've
got my favorite combat historian, Patrick k o'donald joins us. Patrick,
walk us through this. You you've been in bed with
the Marines. By the way, we're doing Marine Corps two fifty.
(28:39):
Although the Marine Corps ten I think November. We're gonna
do the Marine Corps two fifty this Saturday from Camp Pendleton.
We're going to start with the war room at ten
am in the morning, Easter daylight time, and go all
throughout the day. You won't want to miss this. As
one of the former Marines that knows Cleo very well
(29:00):
and watched watch the Navy, said tell Bannon. The Marines
are really looking forward when he does the Men's Department,
Department of the Navy, So we love the Marine Corps's
gonna be very special. Already know from the guys putting
it on it's going to be incredible. So Patrick K O'Donnell,
you've been in bed with the marines. You know the
naval traditions, the importance of the navy and building the country.
(29:23):
The floor is yours, sir well.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
I have a great article in bright bart On the
front page today on the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary
of the Navy, which has some very humble origins. A
fishing boat that was outfitted to attack the greatest navy
in the world at the time, the British Navy, and
they went after they went after the supply ships.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
And it's really a remarkable story.
Speaker 5 (29:48):
And that begins when Washington arrives in Cambridge in the
summer of seventeen seventy five, and to his utter horror,
he realizes that his men only have thirty to forty
cartridges in their cartridge box. They could not repel the
British if they attacked out of Boston. It was a
(30:09):
very They were very challenged by the lack of gunpowder.
The first thing he does is actually takes the riflemen
that come up and puts them out and demonstrates how
accurate they are, these snipers, and then they start taking
off British heads, keeping people down, their heads down.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
But then he has to come up with.
Speaker 5 (30:27):
An idea of how to get more gunpowder, and he
decides to go to the man that's actually guarding his camp,
John Glover, who has a number of naval ships they
trade across the world. And Glover's mariners have their own
ships that they've been trading for years. And he decides
(30:49):
to outfit one of his fishing boats with four guns
and then go after British supply ships. And this ship
is called the Hannah. It's the summer of seventeen seventy five,
and this is the humble origins of the United States Navy.
And it's all done without congressional approval. Washington authorizes Glover
(31:12):
to outfit the boat behind the back of Congress, and
Glover is got who was broke.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Exactly.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
And then there's a fascinating story because you are able
to own cannons at this time, unlike you know what
Joe Biden said and John Glover has is you know
a number of cannons that they used to on their
ships to protect themselves against pirates and other vessels. And
you know, there's a kind of great get off my
lawn story where in seventeen seventy three they help whether
(31:49):
they create a smallpox hospital in Marblehead and the loyalists
in the town aren't having it, and they surround Glover's house.
But they take one of these four pound guns and
puts it in the foyer of his house. As the
mob surrounds the house, he orders the front door thrust open,
and he has a torch in his hand and he says, disperse,
(32:14):
and the people, you know, this crowd of loyalists with
pitchforks and torches dispersed.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
That's the.
Speaker 4 (32:26):
John Glover who has this.
Speaker 5 (32:28):
Now both that's going out with four pound guns, four
of them, and they then attack the You know, they
have a letter of mark basically to act as privateers exactly.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Hang on. They were all freebooters and privateers, privateers letters
of mark. It's amazing story. Here's I want people to
keep in mind. The Royal Navy as an institution became
one of the most powerful and important institutions in world history.
It's the way that and they start it as freebooters.
They started with Francis draking. These guys just taking twenty
(33:04):
percent off the top and given the rest of the
crown as freebooters. But they built an institution that changed
world history and built a British Empire. This is how
a small island nation became a global you know, global dominance.
Really a small island nation that didn't have a tremendous
maritime history at the time, they kind of learned it
(33:27):
and then built an institution. That institution when you have
supply ships, the logistics of it, the coordination. If you
go back and look at the Woryal Navy at the time,
it ran like a like a like a Swiss Watch.
It was so organized and down to everything, every move,
the way the way the crews worked, the way the
officers trained things, the way you had logistics trains, and
(33:50):
you had the uh you had the boats that would
go in escort. It was highly sophisticated. And here a
bunch of collection of freebooters with a letter of mark
from a government that doesn't really even exist at the
Continental Congress and Washington, because the Continental Congress is broke,
he's not even looking for If he goes and asks
for money, they're gonna say no. So this is I'm
(34:11):
going to beg forgiveness and ask permission. Just put some guns,
put some guns on the boat, and just go ahead
there and take them on.
Speaker 5 (34:20):
The guns on the boat. And they go after supply ships.
And the first ship that they capture is it's a
it's a ship that is manned by British sailors and
they are extremely excited to have their first prize and
they bring it into court and they realize that the
(34:40):
British have just they have recaptured a ship that was
owned by a member of Congress John Langdon. And what
happens is Washington is horrified, but the men, these marbleheaders,
have said, look, hey, we fairly got it. This was
a British ship that was a prize ship. And what
(35:01):
happens is you have one of the first mutinies that
takes place, and the crew literally mutinies on board. I
tell the story and the indispensables and Washington quells it,
and then they go back out and they start to hunt.
But this is the organ What's amazing about this story, Steve,
is this is the beginning of sovereignty for a We're
(35:23):
not even a United States yet, a collection of states though,
But when you are starting to build and outfit vessels,
you are creating a sovereign nation.
Speaker 4 (35:34):
A sovereign nation has vessels.
Speaker 5 (35:36):
The first flag is the appeal to Heaven, and that
comes from these ships as well. This is Washington's Navy
or Washington's cruisers. And it's all done behind Congress for
several weeks, and then eventually, on October thirteenth today, two
hundred and fifty years ago, Congress makes the authorization to
(36:00):
to outfit armed vessels to go against Great Britain.
Speaker 4 (36:06):
And it's then that Washington reveals that he is his.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
Own secret navy, which then folds.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
But think about it. The continentally YEP, after Lexington and Concord,
after the Siege of Boston Bunker Hill. These guys are
smart guys. It's just like the run up to World
War One before Pearl Harbor. These guys. This is seventeen
seventy five, folks, the fourth of July Independence Day, the declaration,
(36:34):
signing of the declarations not until next July fourth in
seventeen seventy six. And then immediately the largest expeditionary forces
we have every year on Peter we have Patrick cadonald
On our Fourth of July special to talk about what
was already coming to Staten Island, in the vast armada
that was going to be there. Patrick, we got to bounce.
(36:55):
I want everybody grace if you put the story up,
Everybody go to Breitbart. We're gonna put it up for
this amazing story.
Speaker 5 (37:00):
It's also on my Twitter account at Combat Historian and PATRICKK.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
O'donald dot com.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (37:07):
The book is The Indispensables.
Speaker 5 (37:09):
It tells the story of the first eighty and this
is asymmetric warfare, Steve. This causes the insurance rates to
skyrocket on all commercial vessels, and it's economic war against
Great Britain.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
If you want to read two books back to back,
they'll explain the revolution to you like nobody's business, like
you reading a novel. Washington's Immortals about that amazing regiment
coming out of coming out of Maryland. And then The
Indispensables just incredible about the Marvel, the men of Marvelhead,
the cussedness, the cussedness and grit we stand on the
(37:47):
shoulders of giants. When you read these books, you just
say you're in awe virtually every page. Patrick Aodonald one
more time, where's your where's your social media? Where do
people go?

Speaker 2 (38:12):
It's amazing. We we got, we got, we gotta get
five thousand five stars. It's a classic. Thank you, sir,
appreciate you, honored, Thank you, Steve to go from something
you should be very proud of about your country, kind
of the grit of the American you know, working man
and woman building this country, to something that you're not
(38:35):
gonna not gonna love. Here's what I don't get, Dave Walsh. Uh,
they're telling me that if you backed out Data Center investment,
that GDP would only be like zero point one percent.
I don't totally believe that, but everything is you warned
us on AI on the AI bubble or the AI
jab apocalypse is driven by energy, and maybe waters is
(38:58):
a subset, but energy, what is going on. We've got
a governor's race in New Jersey that's going to come down.
I think to about energy and out of control energy
prices that are runaway and down in Florida, you still
haven't sorted out that mess with Florida Power and Light, Sir.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
They're working on it now. The data center AI thing,
the tip of the speer in the country for the
moment is Virginia, Northern Virginia, Pennsylvania, over to New Jersey
and Maryland north of Washington, where you've got the biggest
concentration of AI and data centers. And now this battle
and the growth of AI between ratepayers who are short

of electricity in PJAM that those states are in PJAM
FOURD auction prices up by a factor at ten times
for electric power because of the existing shortage of electricity.
Now you've got AI owners demanding gigawad thousand megawad two
thousand megawad generation facilities to be built to steal electrification
(39:57):
resources from ratepayers. So you've got a big battle and
it comes it comes to the four in the electricity rates.
New Jersey looks like going up by a factor of
four times, Maryland by a factor potentially fifty in the
next couple of years, and even Pennsylvania in a region
particularly full of natural gas. Because of this domination, now
(40:18):
demand on top of the existing shortage we've been talking
about for three years due to solar and wind shortage
now accelerated by a.

Hang on one second, I want to hold you through
the brick when we get to this, because this is
God's going to drive people into bankruptcy. Birch goal, take
your phone out. Text Bannon at nine eight Get the
Ultimate Guide for investing in gold and precious metals in
the Age of Trump. Gold blew through forty one hundred
bucks to day, folks, and I mean blew through it.
(40:50):
You need to understand why that is happening. Shortbreak, let's take.
Speaker 4 (41:00):
Here's your host, Stephen K.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Bah Birch Gold dot com. One of the big things
that Chinese companies parties trying to do is dedollarization, working
with the bricks nations but also working with others to
make sure transactions are now not converted into dollars. They're
trying to break the dollars the prime reserve currency. If
(41:23):
that happens, it will not be good. I am not
saying we need to be the prime reserve currency. We
have to because tons of obligations internationally come with it.
But if we're not going to have it, it should
be to a national discussion that it's a decision made
by citizens of the United States of America. That's not
what's happening now. We're being driven into it. Birch Gold
(41:45):
dot com promo code Bannon the end of the dollar empire,
get it most importantly talked to Philip Patrick we first
started working with them. Goal was eleven hundred bucks an ounce.
The reason we came up with this concept to teach
people about capital markets, to teach people about fiat currency,
to teach people why gold's been a hedge for five
thousand years is because they said the time dark clouds
(42:05):
are coming and gold is going to be a hedge
more than ever. But eventually it's going to become an
asset class that central banks and money center banks are
going to start buying instead of things like the Euro.
And guess what, voila, we're here, baby. But you need
to understand that. Don't take it from me. The show's
(42:25):
not about me sitting here going yelling and screaming at
you and dada. It's to give you information, So go
check it out today. You need to do this for
your family yourself, your financial stability, your country to be
able to think through these issues like these deficits were running.
If you got an issue with the IRS, it ain't
going to go away. IRS is going to look for
(42:46):
every penny they got because we're running I don't know
one point eight to two tree dollars deficits a year.
They're coming for everybody's money if they think you owe it,
and I know you may have a different opinion if
you fail to file eight finally, or you've got a
discrepancy with them, you got a letter with them. Don't
curl up in a ball in the corner. Reach out
(43:06):
to Tax Network USA. They solved a billion dollars worth
of tax issues. Nothing you tell them is going to
shock them. They've heard it all and they knew the
guys to work with eight hundred ninety five eight one thousand,
and tell them Steve benn Essential will get a free consultation.
Do that today, Dave Walsh. One of these things is
about energy and about the data centers, and quite frankly,
these I thought things like Florida Power and Light, I
(43:29):
thought they had citizen I thought they were set up
as public utilities so they can get feedback from these
folks called rate payers. Are schrendricks out there called American
citizens of this case, Florida citizens. Why is this Why
is that system not working? Why do they seem to
be going down this decarbonization, crazy green new deal scam
(43:52):
of these massive, massive capital investments from the President United
States against it and more importantly the folks in Florida
against it, Sir.
Speaker 5 (44:03):
Of.
Speaker 3 (44:03):
According to the State Office of Public Council, who I
speak to periodically, a record number of interveners and complainers
have stepped up about their present ten billion dollar rate case,
an all time national record high rate case that FB
and L have pushed forward for the next four years
now reduced to seven billion. So some progress is being made,
(44:24):
but that's about building one hundred and thirty more utility
scale solar farms at a cost of about seven billion
at this point for the next four years. The next
ten years, the three regulated utilities, Duke, FBL and Tico
Tap Electric have a plan to.
Speaker 2 (44:40):
Build forty nine billion.
Speaker 3 (44:42):
Dollars worth of solar farms and utility scale battery storage,
which if it were a combined cycle, would cost less
than half of that to build natural gas fired power.
That runs all the time, but no, they're opting for
the far more expensive capital cost two and a half
times more costly capital costs in battery storage to make
more money through their rates. They get a ten and
(45:04):
a half to eleven percent rate recovery on capital investments,
and the more they invest, of course, the more they make.
And they're opting for between the two choices solar and gas.
They're opting for solar, which is very part time here
five hours, five hours a day and ruins reliability and
also ruins the opportunity for data centers and service centers
unless they deploy some of the very large number of
(45:27):
gas turbines that they've ordered already from ge Vernova, which
is adding to the shortage of those the fact that
Southeast utilities have bought a record number of gas turbans
in the last ten months from the major three OEMs,
but they're not deploying them for rate payers. They're waiting
for AI and data center clients to come along and
(45:48):
then go.
Speaker 2 (45:49):
Ahead, wow wow.
Speaker 3 (45:54):
Gas created by the utilities of the bottom.
Speaker 2 (45:57):
All waiting for AI to come. We got hey, I'm
gonna get you back. I'm gonna get you back on
here because we need to help the folks down in
Florida get organized in this because it's unacceptable. Here's the
question I got if people know I'm not a big
Rant Santas fan on a national levels presidential timber and
uh we said this when he tried to challenge President
(46:19):
Trump in that ridiculously failed effort to try to deny
President Trump the nomination. But I think he's been a
very good governor. Rond de Santis is kind of a populist.
Where's DeSantis in this? I can't I can't believe with
a governor like DeSantis, we couldn't solve this thing in
ten minutes. Where's Ronde de Santis, the populis governor of
(46:39):
Florida on this? Sir, well to hold him to account.
Speaker 3 (46:42):
During his administration, the entire seven years of it, every
single submittal before the Public Service Commission for new capacity
power has been for utility scale solar. Every single one
of them has been approved going away by the Public
Service Commission appointed by him. So he's he is certainly
aware of this. If he's not, he's stupid, And he's
(47:04):
not stupid, he's aware.
Speaker 2 (47:07):
Donations say the Sants is a very smart guy. You're
telling me he's bought into this whole solar madness. You're
telling me he's bought into the solar madness. Or is
this because this is where the power company is going
to make more money?
Speaker 3 (47:23):
This is related to the donations to packs from the
power companies. They dominate politics in Florida. Duke Tico and
FBL dominate the State House, that state Senate, and the
governor through ACTI nations, so they basically get their way
on David City.
Speaker 2 (47:41):
I'm going to have you back on real quickly social media.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
Where do people go ex true social and getter at
Dave Walsh Energy. I'll be at the Right Republican Club
